The Athens group Cinquetti were together from 1967 until about 1969. Here are two excellent versions of '60s hits. On one side is a fuzz version of Jackie Lomax's You Better Get Going, sung in greek as "Panta Konta Mou" (Always Near To Me).
The A-side is actually a cover of Brazilian Roberto Carlos' "Namoradinha de um amico meu" (rendered in italian on the label "L'innamorada de un amico mio"). The original had been a big hit in Greece, and this version is just as good.
I adjusted an autotranslation of the following list of band members from a good list of 60's bands in Greece.
Lakis Jiordaneli: Organ, vocals
Dimitri Tambossis: Lead guitar, vocals (-1967, + Dimitris Katakoyzinos -1969, + Manolis Soyvatzis)
Antoni Trjantafyllou: Bass (-1967, + Andreas Metallidis) (a comment below mentions Spyros Metaxas of the Stormies on bass)
Kostas Papaioanou: Drums (-1969, + Antonis Lo'xas)
Vasilis Tataroglouu: Vocals (-1969, +Ha'ris Papada'tos)
